A document released Friday shows an unidentified individual "is a gun collect(or) and has ammo and guns if we need," according to a line entered at 1:50 p.m. on Feb. 12, the climactic day of the manhunt.

The dispatch logs, in which all names have been blacked out, later shows that at about 12 minutes later, the same or another individual "has (a) high powered (weapon) and is offering it to the units. "

San Bernardino County officials released 30 pages of dispatch logs Friday in response to a public records request filed Feb. 13. Officials have previously released recordings of the 9-1-1 call from the Big Bear Lake condo where Dorner kidnapped the married couple who discovered him in his hiding place.

Officials have also said they will release recordings of Feb. 12 dispatch communications, but wrote in a letter that technical difficulties have postponed those records' release.

The offers of weapons to law enforcement are one of the new details revealed in the dispatch logs, which do not contain a direct transcript of responders' communications but summarize the events of Feb. 12.

Much of the story is already known. After being discovered in Big Bear Lake, Dorner stole a Nissan Rogue and was spotted by California Fish and Wildlife wardens on Highway 38, which connects the Big Bear Lake area to Redlands.

During his attempt to flee the San Bernardino Mountains, Dorner crashed the Nissan Rogue, carjacked a pickup truck and exchanged gunfire with pursuing California Fish and Wildlife wardens, none of whom were hit by Dorner's bullets.

Dorner then crashed the pickup into a snow bank and ran away from the highway. He ultimately barricaded himself inside a Barton Flats area cabin from where he shot two San Bernardino County sheriff's deputies and engaged in a firefight with SWAT responders who arrived to extract their wounded compatriots and continue the pursuit of Dorner.

The manhunt and Dorner's life came to their ends after the SWAT deputies who surrounded the cabin resorted to using pyrotechnic tear gas canisters at the cabin, which caught fire. Live television broadcasts captured the sounds of responders shouting phrases such as "burn the gas," which aroused some speculation on online forums that deputies planned to light the cabin on fire.

Sheriff's officials have repeatedly said their intention was to force Dorner to surrender and not to set the cabin ablaze. They and others have said the phrase "burner" is common SWAT parlance for canisters that use heat to disperse tear gas that is designed to incapacitate a suspect.

Dorner did not surrender, however, and deputies heard the blast of a single gunshot from inside the cabin after the fire ignited.

Although officials have stopped short of calling Dorner's death a suicide, the Riverside County Coroner's Office determined his cause of death was a single gunshot wound to his head.

In addition to the offers of weapons, the dispatch logs provide other details as to how the violent events of Feb. 12 affected mountain communities.

Some of those details, such as a camp director's concern for students at the camp illustrate the anxiety mountain dwellers experienced while law enforcement engaged Dorner.

At 2:27 p.m., the director of a Forest Falls camp where 550 students were staying, advised dispatchers that the camp had sufficient provisions in case the camp needed to remain on lockdown overnight, but wanted to find out if the students and camp staffers could somehow be allowed to leave.

In another episode, a "very nervous" man told dispatchers that he and his wife could hear everything that was happening and was standing at his front door with a shotgun while requesting a deputy be assigned to protect the couple.

"(Reporting party) will put his gun away when he sees the (deputy)," the logs report.

The offers of weapons were not the only assistance deputies received from the public. A caller identified as co-owner of Seven Oaks Mountain Cabins told authorities there was access to the cabin's basement from the inside but no means of escape.

Another caller, who said his aunts stayed at the cabin, advised dispatchers that the building had no phone lines, cable or satellite TV nor weapons. Yet another caller wanted to make sure deputies were aware of nearby trail heads that may have provided pathways for Dorner to escape on foot.

At the time the Feb. 12 pursuit began, Dorner was wanted on suspicion of killing Riverside police Officer Michael Crain and an Irvine couple, Monica Quan and Keith Lawrence. One of the two deputies Dorner shot at the cabin, Jeremiah MacKay, died of his wounds.

The second deputy, Alex Collins, is expected to recover and may even return to work.

"I haven't seen him in a couple weeks. I can tell you when I did see him, he was doing very well," sheriff's spokeswoman Cindy Bachman said.

"In light of what happened to him and being shot three times, he is doing exceptionally well. His doctors are very pleased," she added.

Bachman said Collins will need additional surgeries, but is looking forward to returning to work.

Bachman also said sheriff's personnel are not commenting on the Dorner encounter until the case is completed. She said she did not have information as to what kinds of investigations have yet to be finished.

Dorner was a Navy veteran who had sought a law enforcement career with the Los Angeles Police Department. He was dismissed from the LAPD in 2009 after a Board of Rights determined he made false allegations against an officer.

In a manifesto attributed to Dorner and published online, Dorner claimed he was fired for reporting a use of force and declared a one-man war against police officers and their families.
